Changelog:
Git v2.4.5 Release Notes
========================
Fixes since v2.4.4
------------------
* The setup code used to die when core.bare and core.worktree are set
inconsistently, even for commands that do not need working tree.
* There was a dead code that used to handle "git pull --tags" and
show special-cased error message, which was made irrelevant when
the semantics of the option changed back in Git 1.9 days.
* "color.diff.plain" was a misnomer; give it 'color.diff.context' as
a more logical synonym.
* The configuration reader/writer uses mmap(2) interface to access
the files; when we find a directory, it barfed with "Out of memory?".
* Recent "git prune" traverses young unreachable objects to safekeep
old objects in the reachability chain from them, which sometimes
showed unnecessary error messages that are alarming.
* "git rebase -i" fired post-rewrite hook when it shouldn't (namely,
when it was told to stop sequencing with 'exec' insn).
Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code
clean-ups.
Git v2.4.4 Release Notes
========================
Fixes since v2.4.3
------------------
* l10n updates for German.
* An earlier leakfix to bitmap testing code was incomplete.
* "git clean pathspec..." tried to lstat(2) and complain even for
paths outside the given pathspec.
* Communication between the HTTP server and http_backend process can
lead to a dead-lock when relaying a large ref negotiation request.
Diagnose the situation better, and mitigate it by reading such a
request first into core (to a reasonable limit).
* The clean/smudge interface did not work well when filtering an
empty contents (failed and then passed the empty input through).
It can be argued that a filter that produces anything but empty for
an empty input is nonsense, but if the user wants to do strange
things, then why not?
* Make "git stash something --help" error out, so that users can
safely say "git stash drop --help".
* Clarify that "log --raw" and "log --format=raw" are unrelated
concepts.
* Catch a programmer mistake to feed a pointer not an array to
ARRAY_SIZE() macro, by using a couple of GCC extensions.
Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code
clean-ups.
